まとめ
ミコフェノール酸モフェチル(MMF)とベリムマブ(BEL)またはカルシニューリン阻害薬(CNI)を組み合わせた新しい併用療法は、ループス腎炎(LN)の予後を改善する。これらの高度な治療法は、特に予後不良因子がある活動性の腎炎に推奨される。
科学分野:
- 腎臓病学;リウマチ学;免疫学
背景:
- ループス腎炎(LN)は、全身性エリテマトーデス(SLE)患者の罹病率と死亡率を著しく増加させる。;免疫抑制薬と生物学的製剤の最近の進歩により、LNの治療成績は向上している。;併用療法はLNの効果的な治療戦略であるというエビデンスがある。
研究 の 目的:
- ループス腎炎(LN)の管理に関する最新のガイドラインと推奨事項をレビューすること。;活動性LNの治療における新規併用療法の役割を議論すること。;特定の予後因子を持つLN患者のためのエビデンスに基づいた治療戦略を強調すること。
主な方法:
- ループス腎炎に関する現在の国際的な治療ガイドラインのレビュー。;併用療法レジメンを支持する臨床試験データの分析。;MMF、BEL、CNI、オビヌツズマブを含む併用療法の証拠の統合。
主要な成果:
- MMFとBELまたはCNIを組み合わせた併用療法は、特に予後不良因子がある活動性のLNに推奨される。;腎機能が温存され、重度のタンパク尿があるLNには、MMFとCNIの併用が条件付きで推奨される。;腎外SLEの顕著な症状があるLNには、MMFとBELの併用が条件付きで推奨される。;MMFとオビヌツズマブの併用は、新たに初期治療の選択肢として追加された。
結論:
- 新規併用療法レジメンは、ループス腎炎管理における著しい進歩を表す。;治療の決定は、腎機能、タンパク尿、および腎外疾患活動性に基づいて個別化されるべきである。;新興の併用療法は、活動性ループス腎炎の患者に有望な結果をもたらす。

Drugs for Treatment of Crohn's Disease in IBD Using Immunomodulatory Agents
480
Crohn's disease is an inflammatory bowel disorder marked by chronic inflammation of the GI tract. Various treatment strategies for Crohn's disease are employed, such as immunomodulatory agents, glucocorticoids, and biologics or anti-TNF therapy. Azathioprine (Imuran), a commonly used immunomodulatory drug for Crohn's disease, is converted in the body to mercaptopurine, which inhibits purine biosynthesis and cell proliferation. Both are utilized in severe cases of Inflammatory Bowel...
